I was on one of the earlier deployment rotations to get issued the TAPs, and always thought they sucked; after a few weeks, we didn’t allow our guys to use them in our platoon. I always thought that the FLC (when the waist belt was flipped around in the “chest rig mod” fashion) was better. I saw the venture video mentioned, and so grabbed a TAPs to give it a shot; not bad with the mods!
@GadzWolf114 ай бұрын
People complaining about price vs to the TAPS rig: to be fair, the TAPS submitted to the army was a prototype and got approved and put into production. That's why the back has both velcro and a zipper pouch. The army was supposed to choose one or the other. The X harness also has a cheap stemped metal clip for the straps, which was just something quick they put on because the thing they wanted to use didn't arrive in time for the submission. That's why the TAPS is $60. Big Army literally accepted and then put a prototype into full production. Not even a finished product.

The extra play on the end pockets is helpful for allowing the magazines to not bind with each other. One of the draw backs of the TAP was, while yes, you can load it down with magazines, PMags would bind. A lot of people convert them to dedicated tourniquet pouches (4 mags in the middle, flanked by TQs, then some other piece of sustainment gear on the ends). The center placement option for the waist strap was an interesting mention. Typically that is one of the standard TAP features that nobody likes.

A TAP + the Spiritus TAPS Upgrade is going to cost you a little over $200. The zipper insert from AXL for something like this is another $40. The TAP is also poorly designed as soon as you tighten it around your body. Then you've got a dangler that gets in the way going prone. You guys will spend $250 making an outdated piece of surplus kit work 70% as good and not run the dangler that comes with it. The price is actually really reasonable for a piece of American made kit that is well thought out. Good chest right, TRA.

If price is the only thing you care about, then you can certainly spend your time at the Army Surplus store and nobody will blame you.

Pricing yourself is an important part of every business. The most successful businesses are rarely the lowest bidder.

So, why not offer separately a simple, large pouch to hook on to the H-harness in the back for a rear plate for that same home-guard purpose. If you don't offer such a pounch, customers will be figuring ways to substitute a pouch from some other source. Also a great rig for out and about.

I think the plate fitting in the front might be useful in some kind of civilian (Or at least non- military) capacity. Maybe you're doing something where you might be moving long distance for a long period of time, and don't know what exactly you're getting into, and don't have the ability to throw on a plate carrier when you need it. Maybe you think that you might be getting into a dangerous situation, depending on where you're going, so you decide to reach into your bag and shove a plate in the front, just in case. This means you can comfortably carry a lot of gear for the long ruck, more than you could with a plate carrier, but still have the ability to throw a plate in just in case. Just an idea for a use case

Bought one and just received it today. Overall it's a great chest rig but there is one design flaw. Admin pouch zipper is pretty useless when you have a chest rig on you. The zippers are restricted via harness buckles that are coming out of the main body so you can't fully open the admin pouch. It works great and the opening is wide but only if you are not wearing it. This should be addressed and changed to make it more useful. Second thing, a version without harness and back strap would be a good idea as even though the supplied h harness is great and back strap is well done the wise man company HX Hybrid Harness is far superior. I used it straight away at mine and now I am left with a spare harness and back strap. Quick size adjustment via one tri glide on the trex arms back strap could be a bit fiddly to adjust when compared to the double tri glide system used via WMC. Also the wide harness is a lot more comfortable than average h harness (either t rex or mayflower ultra comp etc trex did nothing wrong here :) ) Ohh and esstac tall inserts can be used and works well with 762x39 akm mags so you can have nice kydex retention with these annoying mags.

I'm not sure USA made means as much as it used to. What's the QC sample size per lot? Are the materials used held to the same standard?

Does it have the same issue as the taps when running thebesstac kywis in all the pockets? They begin to close and the kywis begin to sit very akwardly and re-indexing become difficult whcih makes the point of the kywis kind of non exsistent over the regular shcok cord closure or flaps

No velcro on front, minimalistic admin pouch, no wing pouches and a simplified harness. This would save a lot of tayloring and cost

Should have made an LBE like the velocity/crossfire. Sustainment is the way to go in the coming collapse 🥴

Looking at LBE's now, I feel like there's only a handful of options but tons of good use for them.

@@zackn8745 when I was in RR I used and H harness, 4 ammo pouches, 2 canteen pouches, buttpack and 2 small utility pouches. It served me and most everyone else real well. I’ve upgraded the belt over the years and a few of the pouches but it still works just as good as the $350-500 LBEs made now. You probably can get all that listed for $100(GI surplus).
